MASTER USA – Knife

It came really sharp good quality blade. Good value especially for $5! And it works well to throw and it’s about the size I expected

Updated(s) about a year (2 now) into ownership...I bought this as a boot knife for my wife on our farm, she's carried one for several months now and it is a great little tool.I keep 3 in a rotation for her, now and then she will loose one for a few days from not getting it pushed all of the way into the sheath but no complaints on a knife that is carried every day all day long.People complaining about the handle wrap, put a dab of super glue on the knots, re-angle the blade for your intent and read the measurements before you buy... It's a neck / small boot knife, not a Bowie.An update(1)... We now have several more of these between my wife and myself because they are so useful and easy to carry. A few are permanently affixed boot knifes, some loose, some attached to other things like canteen covers. We really could not say enough good things about them.To help with lost and found issues... I rewrapped the handles with high visibility reflective tent cord... It helps out a lot.I also drill .250 holes in the bottom of the sheaths to let debris fall out which helps with a boot knife and trash sand preventing the knife from fully going in and locking.Another update(2) after buying two more...Still a great knife to have and I keep adding these to gear or locations. The reflective handle wrap we started using in a must. I can back track quickly around dark with a flashlight and recover one dropped with ease.The grind quality is still luck of the draw on these when you get them. Of the last two I bought one was sharp as a razor, the other I had to take down with a file before sharpening because it was ground like a butter knife.Also I've noticed the price on these changes greatly. The last few months they had gone up to $12 and then suddenly dropped back to $5.Buy several of these when they are cheap, their handy and make great gifts.

Very durable & quality is perfect & sharpness is okay & price is very affordable

Master USA printed on one side, China on the other. Good sheath retention. Def need to add your own handle. Not great for big hands. Sheath needed a lot of smoothing.

I Highly Recommend

These Master knives are very simple, stainless steel, sharp, and priced right. I have 3 and like them.The handle is too thin though. To fix this I whipped 1/8 inch nylon line (rope) tight to the handle.Just whip over the existing line or rope.This makes the handle about 1/2 inch thick which has a much better feel.Google whipping line or rope if you are not familiar with it. It is very easy to do it.And just tuck the loose ends into the handle to hide them.The sheath works well and holds the knife well.The knife is slightly on the smaller side but exactly what is wanted.

Maybe a year later. Great knife. Leave it in the car incase anyone wants to get silly or I have to open something.

This is a very nice light weight fixed blade that hasngood sharpness. The blade has a nice paracord grip. The sheath feels durable and has a lanyard, or a clip which allows mento carry it in a variety of ways. The blade stays safely and snug when secured in the sheath and the overall design is effective.
